The toolbox comprises a body having areceiving portion for receiving at least one tool; and at least onepreview window for viewing objects in the receiving portion. The previewwindow can be installed at a front plate of a drawer or a lateralsurface of the body or a top surface of the body. The receiving portionmay be a single space or a plurality of sub-spaces which are spaced byat least one spacer. A bottom of the body has at least one wheel. Theuser can pull the drawer by inserting a hand into the slot.

The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be morereadily understood from the following detailed description when read inconjunction with the appended drawing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In order that those skilled in the art can further understand thepresent invention, a description will be provided in the following indetails. However, these descriptions and the appended drawings are onlyused to cause those skilled in the art to understand the objects,features, and characteristics of the present invention, but not to beused to confine the scope and spirit of the present invention defined inthe appended claims.

Referring to FIG. 1, the present invention is illustrated. The body 10of the present invention is a long cubic body. The interior of the body10 has a receiving portion. A plurality of spacers serves to space thereceiving portion into a plurality of sub-spaces.

Referring to FIG. 1, a preferred embodiment of the present invention isillustrated. The present invention has the following elements.

At least one wheel 20 is installed at a bottom end of the body 10.

At least one drawer 30 has a front plate 31. A lower portion of thefront plate 31 is formed with a slot 33. The user can pull the drawer 30by inserting a hand into the slot 33. An upper portion of the frontplate 31 is installed with an oblong preview window 35. Users can viewthe objects in the drawer 30 by seeing through the preview window 35.

Referring to FIG. 2, the second embodiment of the present invention isillustrated. Those identical to the first embodiment will not bedescribed. Only those differences are described. A top surface portion11 of the body 10 is installed with a preview window 15 which may occupya part or whole surface of the top surface portion 11. The user can viewof the objects in the body 10 by seeing through the preview window 15.

Referring to FIG. 3, the third embodiment of the present invention isillustrated. Those identical to the first embodiment will not bedescribed. Only those differences are described.
